A man, clinging to life. His two sons, desperate to cure their ailing father, are left with but one option. They must set out upon a journey to find and bring back the "Water of Life" as they come to rely on one another to survive. One must be strong where the other is weak, brave where the other is fearful, they must be... Brothers.

Gameplay is based around the two brothers helping and assisting each other to overcome the challenges of the world. They must overcome obstacles and solve puzzles by working together. The player controls each brother with one of the analog sticks, allowing to move each character freely and individually. There is also action buttons respective for each brother.
NPCs will have different reactions when interacting with each brother, where sometimes only one of the brothers can get specific information from specific NPCs.
